Default More clutch issues. Slave cyl. Pulling trans..

The sage continues:

Master slave cylinder keeps blowing out. My mechanic(who is reputable and only works on GER cars) is stumped. We even dragged Piggie into the mix for advice. Mike can't even help. He's assisting because I bought the kevlar clutch and lwfw from him. Tranny is brand new from STaSIS
Mechanic has no other alternative but to pull the trans to investigate further No one is pointing fingers yet, but we are all trying to figure out why this keeps happening.

Something is going on that is causing the slave cylinder to explode. Any ideas!??

Then again, every DE car is running ATE Blue w/o probs. I think that's a myth.

Default I beg to differ about it being a myth, from personal experiences on multiple cars.

But if you have them blowing left and right, it's most likely not the cause.

Perhaps. I just called, and he's not using it anyways. Man, I'm so tired of being without the S.
